That image thing again …

> ON a Sunday night last month at Daddy’s, a bar in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, more than a dozen people in their 20s and 30s gathered at a professional soiree, drinking frozen margaritas and nibbling store-bought cookies. With their thrift-store inspired clothes and abundant tattoos, they looked as if they could be filmmakers, Web designers, coffee shop purveyors or artists. \[[A Hipper Crowd of Shushers – New York Times](https://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/08/fashion/08librarian.html?ex=1341460800&en=e47a5b7e5c4ae125&ei=5124&partner=permalink&exprod=permalink&ref=lorcandempsey.net)\]
